Today’s Date: 2/27/25
Requested Amount: $4,500

Project Title: HI-ART
Project Description:

Every year Tubac Center of the Arts hosts a special exhibition of art created by our local high school students. Just as in all exhibitions during our regular season, we have students apply, jury the entries and hang from 85-100 pieces in our galleries. Five cash awards including the Best of Show, Award of Excellence, Award of Merit and two Honorary Mention(s) are presented. In addition, a college scholarship award to a graduation senior that is based on both an essay and their art is also awarded. We would like to be able to offer two scholarship awards to seniors going on to college. These young students will be the next generation of artists, art collectors and supporters of the arts. If the private sector invests more robustly in the creative sector, it will help to fuel economic growth, build community identity, drive innovation, and make our communities more vibrant, competitive, and resilient. The arts enrich lives. We want to help and support the next generation to know and appreciate the role that the arts play to enhance individual lives as well as help to build healthy communities.
A grant to help support these high school students who represent the next generation is needed and will be greatly appreciated.
